Hist Lib. xxxviii cap. vi For Pliny who flourish'd in the time of Vespasian the Emperour calls them novitium inventum a new invention whose Authority much out-weighs those empty Titles of Arcus Romuli and Camilli of which there is no ancient Record Yet that they were in use before Julius Caesar almost one Century of years ha's been conjectured out of these words of Asconius Pedianus an Authour against whom there is no exception and who
